Last month i read a test about a Windows(PC) prgramm which does what you'd  
like and more.
It reads: TrueType,PS-Type 1+3,Intellifont,Nimbus Q,CorelDraw,LaserMaster
It writes: TrueType,PS-Type 1+3,Nimbus Q

This programm also produces the hints and is called FontMonger from Ares  
Corporation. Sorry I only the name of the company and the (incomplete)  
address of a german reseller (Softline GmbH,Oberkirsch).

DON'T flame me. I KNOW that this is the NeXT area. I would have written  
this on NeXT. But that doesn't count.
